Mr. Speaker. President Obama is expected to sign executive orders soon regarding illegal immigration. In July 2011. he said. "I know some people want me to bypass Congress and change the laws on my own. but thats not how our system works. Thats not how our democracy functions." A year ago. President Obama said. "If. in fact. I could solve all these problems without passing laws in Congress. then I would do so. But we are also a nation of laws. Thats part of our tradition. And what Im proposing." he said then. "is the harder path. which is to use our democratic processes to achieve the same goal." President Obama should reflect on his own words.
